Month: October 2001

  •  

    I used to work in the mountains. On average, 3 to 4 thousand feet above sea level. Around, this time of year, we would get snow in the hills, and we would get laid off for 3 months. We would keep trying to drive up the hills till we couldn’t make it any more. On average we would drive until we would spin out, slip back to more level spot, and try again. Slipping back was the hairy part where by it was steep on the down side. We would try about 3 times and radio to the camp we can’t make it and they would tell us to go home. We took turns in driving. On this one really miserable steep site, the driver drove as far as he could, and froze at the wheel. Needless to say, we all got out and got him out of the drivers seat, and picked straws to who would back the truck back down. The winner of the draw, Haw, Haw didn’t know how he made it, and lived. Well, he put it in reverse and slid down. Fine job. We went home.

    One Halloween night, were about ready to go home after doing what we could for our fellow man. What about that Japanese guy down at the end of the road? Japanese people have good gardens. Yes lets go there and see what we can find. Entering his garden, we see this scarecrow ( which a lot of people used in those days) We were commenting on how life like it was, when suddenly it came to life, and chased us down the road. This guy had to be an Olympic champion. Boy could he run. He probably could have caught us, but didn’t want to. Next year, we decided to try  again. (not too bright). We walked into the garden. Wow all clear, when suddenly he appeared out of nowhere. O, no, here we go again. The Olympic star was on our heals, again. On future outings, we refrained on thinking about his place. Beaten like yellow dogs. How degrading.

    When I was young, we lived on a dairy farm. We had 20 cows, cats, chickens, and two dogs. Times were always tough on the farm. Not much money. So my father decided the dogs must be gone. I wouldn’t do such  a thing, but to get rid of them, he took them in the car 40 miles from home and dropped them off. GONE! Six months later, being Halloween night, we were walking in a field, deciding what the next good deed we were going to do for man kind, these to dogs came running up to us, happy to see us, and we were happy to see them. UNREAL. Well, we took them home with us. Father, was not happy, but was amazed . Us boys had missed the dogs.

  • Halloween prank


    Being in our teens,and going out on halloween. There was three of us buddies, deciding what we were going to do. There was a guy who we didn't like because he was very different than every body else. Two of us were white, and the other person was, (what was called in those days) hindu. He was a good friend regardless his race. He was six feet, and wore a turbin. We decided to tear the roof off this weird guys outhouse. Success! We were getting away with it. ( untill the hindu, dicided to look into the guys window, and was seen) The judge said,  we had to go and repair it. So on a school day, we played hooky, walked 5 miles, and fixed the roof. Walked 5 miles back to school and got a scolding for playing hooky. This may have been a learning thing.

  • When I was tenager, on halloween night we wood go skulking around the neibourhood soaping windows, removing gates, and puting them elsewhere, making weird noises, and all that good stuff that a person did in those days on halloween.One of our favorites, was knocking over outhouses, which was a small 4 by 4 building on a dug hole. It was okay if you didn' t slip into the hole. We were told, if you went to a house, knocked on the door, and say treat or tricks, they would give out goodies. Okay! we went to this house, scared out of our minds, knocked on the door, and this big guy opens the door and says, YES! We say mousely, treat or trick. He asked, what kind of tricks can you do. LOS FOR WORDS. Can you sing, he asked. No we said. You will have to sing me a song before I give you a treat. So! half heartedly we mumbled a song. He gave us each an apple. Needles to say, that was our last house we tryed.

  • It won't be long now, when all the kids will be coming around our doors yelling Treats or tricks. I some times ask them, what kind of a trick can you do. Well I get the blankest look I ever seen. The idea is just to shell out, and keep my mouth shut, which is hard to do for me. But one must not go against the flow. Don't be a rock in a stream. Yuck. Yuck.

  • I wonder what the terrorist are cooking up now, or do we have a few copycaters, who are trying to have some more morbid fun at the expense of those who are easy to scare. In our own countrie, us, and canada, there seems to be a lot of people who get a kick out of doing all kinds of stuff for what ever reason. In canada, we are known as a giving, and helping nation. I can't see why anyone would want to molest us. Thats all we really need, is the government to clean up it's act on imigration, and have a good look at those  that are here. Hang in canada. You have nothing to fear but fear itself.

  • Maybe it's the general publics bag with this terrorists stuff. But I am getting tired of the what could happen. Viruses, and attacks. People being scared, and the news guys milking it for all it's worth. Possibly, If the government would have been doing their job in the first place with immigration, things wouldent be as hairy. Then there's the american gove. What are they doing to piss so many people off. Possibly if the american gove. would get their figures out of these people affairs, and help instead of hinder, they wouldnt be in this crude war bisiness. But the geral public, don't seem to have a say in these things. Now a lot of people going to die for american interest. Where does it stop.
